—-----------------------------------------------------
Jaime's footsteps were heavy as he neared his home. He heard the pitter-pats of rain quietly hitting the sidewalks he walked on. He sighed. "Hm... It's raining... better get home fast." Suddenly, he heard a voice call for him. "Jaime! You need an umbrella!"
His head turned, and his face lit up. "Alex? Why're you running through the rain?" Alex neared Jaime, and Jaime could hear the rough breathing coming from Alex. "Hah- You need an umbrella, Jaime." He handed Jaime The umbrella, and they began walking together.
Jaime chuckled, the rain drops hitting the ground quieting, as if they silenced for him. "How did I even get a husband like you?" Jaime said, thinking back to how he met Alex.
—------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jaime Walked into the kitchen, hearing loud noises from the living room. All of a sudden, A young girl came rushing into the kitchen, knocking him over. "Agh- Ana be careful!"
The girl chuckled. "Jaime! You've gotta come watch Me and Mcmuffin's wedding!" She yelled out, standing up. "Ana... who are the other guests...?" Jaime asked, confused. "Sparkles and Angel!" Ana yelled out.
Jaime chuckled, his face lighting up. "Heh- ok, let's go." He stood up, and Ana rushed over to the living room. "Mr. Mcmuffin, do you take Ana Lucianai to be your wife?" Ana spoke, in a ridiculous voice. "Yes, I do." Jaime said, pretending to be Mcmuffin.
"And you, Ana, do you take Mcmuffin to be your husband?" "I do!" Ana said and hugged Mcmuffin tight. A snicker escaped Jaime, before he heard someone call his phone. "Ah- hang on a minute, Ana, I think it's mom." Jaime said, standing up. He answered the phone to hear a familiar voice. "Jaime. We need groceries. Can you head out and pick them up?"
Jaime smiled. "Yeah, sure mom." He heard the ending tone of the call and put the phone down. "Hey, Ana, are you able to be a big girl and stay home without me for a bit?" Jaime smiled worryingly, and Ana looked up at him surprised. "You trust me after the rat cheese incident?"
Ana Smiled. "Aha! I'm so happy you finally trusted me!" She ran up to Jaime and hugged him, her face glowing. "Right, so you'll be fine? And you won't eat rat poison?" Jaime asked. "Yes, I promise!" She chuckled.
"Right. Then I'll be heading out to get groceries. Ya want anything?" Jaime asked. "Hm... Ice cream!" "Cherry as always?" "Yeah!" "Now you go get our ice cream!" Ana began to push Jaime to the doorway. "Alright, Alright! I'll go!" Jaime Exclaims, leaving the house.
Jaime got into his car, locking the door and starting it up. He opened his phone to see A message from Miguel. Jaime turned his phone off, and began driving. About 10 minutes later he arrived at the supermarket, and he got out of his car.
Once he was inside, he grabbed a cart and began heading down the aisles. While searching for Ana's Ice cream, someone tapped on his shoulder. "Hm? Ah- do you need something over here?-" Jaime asked, turning back. When he saw the person behind him, he nearly screamed.
His fear set in. Was this Miguel? How did he know where Jaime was in the first place? However, Taking a closer look, he realized this Isn't Miguel, but Miguel's younger brother. "Is something wrong?" The man asked, a confused expression plastered on his face.
"Ah- Uhm- Nothing, you just reminded me of someone I kno- Knew." Jaime answered nervously, hoping The man wouldn't realize who he was. However, once the man looked at Jaime's face, his eyes widened. "You?! You're the idiot who made my brother feel fucking horrible!" The man began to yell at Jaime, before Jaime interrupted him.
"Him?! Did he even tell you the full story?! I doubt it!-" Jaime yelled back, his voice Panickey. Suddenly, someone ran up to the two. It was a girl with orange hair, and blue eyes. Her skin had multiple colors, which was unusual, but they made her much prettier. "Would you two mind taking your romantic spat outside?"
Jaime's eyes widened. "Lexi! You're here!- Help!- He began yelling at me about Miguel and how I 'hurt' Him!" Jaime yelled out, jumping into an embrace. "Eh?- Who even is this guy, Jaime?" The girl asked. "He's Miguel's twin!" Jaime said, his voice still shaky.
"I'm his younger brother, thanks. And you did hurt him!" The male said. "How did I hurt him?!" Jaime yelled. "You hurt him mentally while you guys dated!" The male said back. "He told you that...?" Jaime asked. "Yeah! And he was telling the truth." The male answered. "Of course he would play the victim... Sicko Bastard..."
"What'd you call my brother?!" "A sick bastard! And I'm not wrong!" Jaime was getting tired of arguing with him. "If you can't get it through your thick skull, Your brother is an ass!" Jaime exclaimed, before grabbing the ice cream and running off.
"Jaime! You forgot your cart!-" Lexi yelled to Jaime, and he came rushing back over. "I- You- You didn't see this!-" Jaime said, his voice shaky. "A- And don't tell- Him That you saw me, okay?" Jaime turned to Alex. "Who are you talking about? 'Him'?" Alex asked, confused.
"Y-your brother, idiot!" Jaime yelled at Alex, before rushing off with his cart. "Eh- Sorry about him... He's a little scared of your brother after the whole abuse situation..." Lexi said, an apologetic tone in her voice.
"Why is he scared of the person he hurt?" Alex asked, irritation still obvious in his voice. "What do you mean...? He was the one being hurt." Lexi answered, confused. "No, cause Miguel said-" "Well whatever your brother said was wrong and a lie, we have evidence. Now I should get back to work." Lexi said, walking off.
Jaime's heart was racing. He came across his Ex's brother?! How could this even happen?! It must be a coincidence! That's right, just a coincidence. Hopefully He won't tell Miguel that he Saw Jaime, right? Jaime's mind raced.
He then realized it was his turn in the checkout, and quickly went to the register. Jaime placed his items on the counter and as he was checking out, he heard a voice behind him.
